Why 40 00:01:49,022 --> 00:01:52,182 Speaker 2: Hollywood is obsessed with personality tests right now, and why 41 00:01:52,182 --> 00:01:55,742 Speaker 2: putting ourselves in boxes has never been more appealing. Also 42 00:01:55,862 --> 00:01:59,742 Speaker 2: recommendations include one of Jesse's trademark late adoptions to a 43 00:01:59,822 --> 00:02:05,222 Speaker 2: TV classic, Murphy's new romanticy obsession, and a delicious TV binge. 44 00:02:05,822 --> 00:02:09,222 Speaker 2: And our best and worst of the week include very 45 00:02:09,262 --> 00:02:13,221 Speaker 2: holy Celebrities, labor inducing dance, No I wonder who that, 46 00:02:15,061 --> 00:02:19,901 Speaker 2: a pretty twisted algorithm, and a very wholesome Saturday night. 47 00:02:20,022 --> 00:02:22,582 Speaker 2: But first, Jesse Stevens. 48 00:02:22,342 --> 00:02:25,341 Speaker 3: In case you missed it, sober sauna raves are the 49 00:02:25,462 --> 00:02:26,262 Speaker 3: new night out. 50 00:02:26,742 --> 00:02:27,942 Speaker 2: Sober sauna raves. 51 00:02:28,022 --> 00:02:31,502 Speaker 3: Yeah, so what does a sauna party look like? You 52 00:02:31,582 --> 00:02:34,702 Speaker 3: might ask? Well, one writer for a publication called ID 53 00:02:35,422 --> 00:02:39,062 Speaker 3: just attended an event in London and it began with 54 00:02:39,222 --> 00:02:43,422 Speaker 3: a non alcoholic presecca, followed by a dance in a 55 00:02:43,462 --> 00:02:47,262 Speaker 3: sweat soapd sauna where everyone is in their swimwear. And 56 00:02:47,382 --> 00:02:50,582 Speaker 3: my favorite detail of this article was when the author said, 57 00:02:51,022 --> 00:02:54,621 Speaker 3: I begin to feel unpleasantly hot, and yeah, mate, you're 58 00:02:54,622 --> 00:02:59,102 Speaker 3: in a sauna. There's a trombonist, there's a cold plunge, 59 00:02:59,342 --> 00:03:01,822 Speaker 3: there's a trombonist. I thought it was It looked to 60 00:03:01,822 --> 00:03:05,302 Speaker 3: me like a saxophone. But in the article trombonist. Is 61 00:03:05,302 --> 00:03:06,862 Speaker 3: that how you would say it, Claire. 62 00:03:06,662 --> 00:03:07,621 Speaker 1: I would presume so. 63 00:03:07,782 --> 00:03:10,862 Speaker 3: But why well, they need some music, they need some 64 00:03:10,902 --> 00:03:12,662 Speaker 3: live music in the sauna. I don't even know how 65 00:03:12,702 --> 00:03:13,102 Speaker 3: they made. 66 00:03:12,942 --> 00:03:15,462 Speaker 1: It from bonus makes logic sense, I guess exactly. 67 00:03:16,222 --> 00:03:18,062 Speaker 3: And it's all set up to give you a very 68 00:03:18,102 --> 00:03:20,742 Speaker 3: fun night without paying the price the next day. Now, 69 00:03:20,862 --> 00:03:22,942 Speaker 3: this is not just a phenomenon occurring on the other 70 00:03:22,982 --> 00:03:25,302 Speaker 3: side of the world. There are some happening in a 71 00:03:25,302 --> 00:03:28,901 Speaker 3: bunch of capital cities everywhere, and sauna use is exploding 72 00:03:29,022 --> 00:03:32,662 Speaker 3: in Australia, similarly to the cold plunge, which we discussed 73 00:03:32,662 --> 00:03:35,622 Speaker 3: on the podcast a little while ago. Claire, did you 74 00:03:35,622 --> 00:03:37,262 Speaker 3: go to a sauna rave on the weekend? Oh? 75 00:03:37,302 --> 00:03:41,062 Speaker 4: You know, that's my regular Saturday evening friends. My first 76 00:03:41,102 --> 00:03:43,702 Speaker 4: reaction to this is a visceral, like full body no 77 00:03:43,862 --> 00:03:46,742 Speaker 4: thank you. But then a part of me was like, 78 00:03:46,822 --> 00:03:50,382 Speaker 4: this might be like the great leveler, because there is 79 00:03:50,462 --> 00:03:52,782 Speaker 4: no way that I can compete with a woman in 80 00:03:52,822 --> 00:03:56,182 Speaker 4: a nightclub who knows how to do makeup properly because 81 00:03:56,222 --> 00:03:59,742 Speaker 4: I don't, And so like, I rock in already looking 82 00:03:59,982 --> 00:04:03,742 Speaker 4: probably slightly sweaty and red. So I feel like everybody 83 00:04:04,142 --> 00:04:06,782 Speaker 4: is going to be more than slightly sweaty and very red. 84 00:04:07,102 --> 00:04:09,822 Speaker 4: And there's no brand of makeup that I know on 85 00:04:09,902 --> 00:04:11,462 Speaker 4: the market that can survive. 86 00:04:11,342 --> 00:04:14,422 Speaker 1: A sauna rave. So I feel like maybe this is 87 00:04:14,462 --> 00:04:16,182 Speaker 1: a great leveler where we can all just look at 88 00:04:16,181 --> 00:04:19,302 Speaker 1: each other and see each other like real faces, maybe. 89 00:04:18,981 --> 00:04:20,861 Speaker 3: As we are. Because the other thing is you don't 90 00:04:20,861 --> 00:04:23,142 Speaker 3: need a hot nightclub dress. Now we're in a dress 91 00:04:23,262 --> 00:04:26,541 Speaker 3: now you're just in some whatever, potentially new, which is 92 00:04:26,621 --> 00:04:27,822 Speaker 3: again great level. 93 00:04:28,541 --> 00:04:31,222 Speaker 2: And very slippery. I like the idea of how slippery 94 00:04:31,262 --> 00:04:32,421 Speaker 2: everything is in this place. 95 00:04:32,621 --> 00:04:34,342 Speaker 4: I don't know, but sauna wood is different. You know, 96 00:04:34,381 --> 00:04:35,701 Speaker 4: if you've been in a sauna and they're made of 97 00:04:35,741 --> 00:04:37,141 Speaker 4: that wood, that's like really good. 98 00:04:37,181 --> 00:04:40,301 Speaker 2: But I'm in all the bodies, we are all weird, culippery, 99 00:04:40,421 --> 00:04:43,702 Speaker 2: a very slippery. I'm from the nineties, and a good 100 00:04:43,782 --> 00:04:46,662 Speaker 2: rave should feel like a sauna. That's the whole point. 101 00:04:46,902 --> 00:04:50,701 Speaker 2: You're supposed to get sweaty and hydrate. That is the 102 00:04:50,782 --> 00:04:51,261 Speaker 2: key to it. 103 00:04:51,262 --> 00:04:54,342 Speaker 3: Feel like Holly, you weren't on non alcoholic proseccos. 104 00:04:54,381 --> 00:04:55,382 Speaker 2: That's how I feel white. 105 00:04:56,262 --> 00:04:59,741 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say something controversial. Is it wrong to not 106 00:04:59,782 --> 00:05:02,822 Speaker 3: want to be too hot or too cold? Because I 107 00:05:02,861 --> 00:05:04,662 Speaker 3: feel like you're not allowed to say that anymore. That 108 00:05:04,782 --> 00:05:07,582 Speaker 3: I like being in a lovely temperature. I went to 109 00:05:07,621 --> 00:05:10,141 Speaker 3: a one of those spars that have opened up recently. 110 00:05:10,142 --> 00:05:12,541 Speaker 3: You pay forty bucks and there's like a steam room 111 00:05:12,541 --> 00:05:14,022 Speaker 3: and a sauna and a cold plunge, a lot of 112 00:05:14,061 --> 00:05:16,022 Speaker 3: that about at the moment, and I just went, well, 113 00:05:16,061 --> 00:05:19,261 Speaker 3: this pool is I don't know, thirty degrees. That's great, 114 00:05:19,342 --> 00:05:21,141 Speaker 3: I'll just sit in a spa. I don't need to 115 00:05:21,181 --> 00:05:24,222 Speaker 3: be uncomfortable for a moment. Like and I was looking 116 00:05:24,222 --> 00:05:26,261 Speaker 3: at these other people getting in their coal plunge and 117 00:05:26,301 --> 00:05:27,381 Speaker 3: their sweating. 118 00:05:27,621 --> 00:05:31,381 Speaker 2: I just what you're the goldilocks of spa culture. This 119 00:05:31,501 --> 00:05:32,822 Speaker 2: is too hot and this is too cold. 120 00:05:32,941 --> 00:05:36,421 Speaker 4: But like, can we be honest? These temperature extremes belonged 121 00:05:36,462 --> 00:05:39,462 Speaker 4: to people who existed before us, Right we evolved away 122 00:05:39,501 --> 00:05:43,342 Speaker 4: from requiring to be immune from extreme temperatures because we 123 00:05:43,462 --> 00:05:47,581 Speaker 4: created air conditioning and central heating and like combustion heaters. 124 00:05:47,702 --> 00:05:51,861 Speaker 4: So are we evolving to want to be twenty four degrees? 125 00:05:52,381 --> 00:05:54,222 Speaker 1: So true, the true every day of the. 126 00:05:54,142 --> 00:05:57,621 Speaker 3: Exactly and people who were freezing invented very, very big jackets. 127 00:05:58,381 --> 00:06:02,422 Speaker 2: What number are you? Apparently, I'm a nine. Threes are 128 00:06:02,421 --> 00:06:06,021 Speaker 2: best in terms of riches and fame, but sevens are happiest. 129 00:06:06,342 --> 00:06:09,301 Speaker 2: Taylor Swift is a three, Aniston is a six, Amy 130 00:06:09,301 --> 00:06:12,501 Speaker 2: Pop is an eight, Zuckerberg is a five, Glennan Doyle 131 00:06:12,621 --> 00:06:15,382 Speaker 2: is a four. If you have no idea what I'm 132 00:06:15,421 --> 00:06:21,341 Speaker 2: talking about, welcome. We're talking about anyagrams, because right now 133 00:06:21,421 --> 00:06:25,021 Speaker 2: it seems like everybody is talking about anygrams. So either 134 00:06:25,061 --> 00:06:27,342 Speaker 2: of you two know what your anagram number is. 135 00:06:27,702 --> 00:06:31,142 Speaker 3: Yeah, I for some reason did a course years. 136 00:06:30,941 --> 00:06:33,782 Speaker 2: Ago, a whole course, so not just an online quiz. 137 00:06:33,902 --> 00:06:36,222 Speaker 3: No, I'm trying to remember the reason. But I think 138 00:06:36,301 --> 00:06:38,942 Speaker 3: someone was doing a course in it and needed people 139 00:06:39,342 --> 00:06:41,461 Speaker 3: to work on. So I was like a lure, like 140 00:06:41,501 --> 00:06:43,582 Speaker 3: a rat. You're a subject, like a labrat. I was 141 00:06:43,582 --> 00:06:46,981 Speaker 3: a subject and I came back as and I loved 142 00:06:47,022 --> 00:06:49,581 Speaker 3: your introduction, Hollywayn Wright, because I am a type three. 143 00:06:49,941 --> 00:06:50,701 Speaker 2: You are a three. 144 00:06:50,741 --> 00:06:54,101 Speaker 3: I am a Taylor Swift. She's called the achiever. My 145 00:06:54,181 --> 00:06:57,541 Speaker 3: basic fear is worthlessness, and my basic desire is to 146 00:06:57,582 --> 00:06:59,262 Speaker 3: feel valuable and worthwhile. 147 00:06:59,381 --> 00:07:05,021 Speaker 2: So ambitious, right driven, image oriented, success oriented. Now, Murphy, 148 00:07:05,462 --> 00:07:07,022 Speaker 2: we might get to you in a minute, because I 149 00:07:07,061 --> 00:07:10,902 Speaker 2: have a feeling you reject all have words. Yes, So 150 00:07:10,902 --> 00:07:13,902 Speaker 2: to explain a little bit about what the eneagram is, 151 00:07:14,662 --> 00:07:18,581 Speaker 2: here's an expert in the space, Jackie Pollock from Human Leadership, 152 00:07:18,622 --> 00:07:19,821 Speaker 2: giving us a quick summary. 153 00:07:20,062 --> 00:07:22,862 Speaker 5: The anigram is a model. In fact, some people refer 154 00:07:22,941 --> 00:07:26,422 Speaker 5: to it as a map, and it represents nine different 155 00:07:26,502 --> 00:07:29,542 Speaker 5: ways of viewing the world. So think of it like 156 00:07:29,742 --> 00:07:34,062 Speaker 5: nine different type patterns, and the patterns are around how 157 00:07:34,102 --> 00:07:38,021 Speaker 5: we feel, how we think, and how we behave. The 158 00:07:38,102 --> 00:07:41,902 Speaker 5: aniogram goes much deeper. It doesn't just look at what 159 00:07:41,982 --> 00:07:46,382 Speaker 5: you do. It explores why you do it. It's the 160 00:07:46,422 --> 00:07:51,102 Speaker 5: core motivation that sits underneath why we do what we do. 161 00:07:51,462 --> 00:07:53,862 Speaker 2: And the way that you find out your eniogram number 162 00:07:53,982 --> 00:07:57,622 Speaker 2: is you do a test, either a free online one 163 00:07:57,662 --> 00:08:02,222 Speaker 2: which I'm sure is very accurate, or a full course 164 00:08:02,302 --> 00:08:04,342 Speaker 2: like our friend Jesse Stevens. You can get us into 165 00:08:04,381 --> 00:08:06,461 Speaker 2: this or not, and it will present you with a 166 00:08:06,542 --> 00:08:09,422 Speaker 2: list of basic statements and then rate your response to them. 167 00:08:09,622 --> 00:08:12,262 Speaker 2: Those statements might be just things like I enjoy being 168 00:08:12,302 --> 00:08:14,302 Speaker 2: by myself more than being with others, and you kind 169 00:08:14,302 --> 00:08:17,462 Speaker 2: of go agree, disagree, strongly agreed, or you get that stuff, 170 00:08:17,862 --> 00:08:21,222 Speaker 2: and then it sorts you like the sorting hateah into 171 00:08:21,262 --> 00:08:24,302 Speaker 2: a number, as you have touched on Jesse. Three is 172 00:08:24,342 --> 00:08:26,662 Speaker 2: the achiever. Some others include I won't do them all, 173 00:08:26,702 --> 00:08:31,261 Speaker 2: but some others include the reformer, which is type one principled, purposeful, 174 00:08:31,342 --> 00:08:37,982 Speaker 2: self controlled, the individualist Type four sensitive, expressive, dramatic, self absorbed, 175 00:08:38,342 --> 00:08:41,022 Speaker 2: the loyalist that's our friend Jennifer Aniston coming in at 176 00:08:41,062 --> 00:08:45,062 Speaker 2: number six, committed, security or inted, responsible, and anxious. I'm 177 00:08:45,102 --> 00:08:47,982 Speaker 2: a nine apparently, which is a peacemaker. I don't know 178 00:08:48,022 --> 00:08:49,982 Speaker 2: if I am, really, but apparently I think I am 179 00:08:50,062 --> 00:08:55,262 Speaker 2: easy going, receptive, agreeable, complacent. That's me. And the reason 180 00:08:55,302 --> 00:08:57,622 Speaker 2: that we're talking about this because this model has actually 181 00:08:57,662 --> 00:08:59,942 Speaker 2: been around for ages, been around for more than seventy years, 182 00:08:59,942 --> 00:09:01,942 Speaker 2: and it has all kinds of different backgrounds which are 183 00:09:02,022 --> 00:09:05,901 Speaker 2: quite complicated. But right now everybody's quite into self optimization, 184 00:09:06,062 --> 00:09:08,022 Speaker 2: which is often seen as a bit of a reaction 185 00:09:08,142 --> 00:09:10,822 Speaker 2: to uncontrollable circumstance dances. I don't know if that rings 186 00:09:10,822 --> 00:09:14,422 Speaker 2: any bells anyone. Then we turn to this kind of 187 00:09:14,622 --> 00:09:18,902 Speaker 2: making order. But also because of celebrities as always right 188 00:09:18,982 --> 00:09:23,062 Speaker 2: so famously, the White Lotus creator Mike White loves an anagram, 189 00:09:23,382 --> 00:09:25,942 Speaker 2: makes his cast do them, also does them for all 190 00:09:25,982 --> 00:09:29,102 Speaker 2: his characters. Ideally he likes it if they match up, then. 191 00:09:29,142 --> 00:09:32,742 Speaker 3: That makes total sense. He's a storyteller. He needs like 192 00:09:32,862 --> 00:09:35,022 Speaker 3: there's a sense of you work within an archetype and 193 00:09:35,062 --> 00:09:37,302 Speaker 3: then you might disrupt it. But I understand why it's 194 00:09:37,302 --> 00:09:38,942 Speaker 3: consistent with Mike White very much. 195 00:09:39,062 --> 00:09:41,382 Speaker 2: And people like AaB Pohlar get all their mates to 196 00:09:41,422 --> 00:09:44,142 Speaker 2: take them. Apparently that sounds like a fun night. I 197 00:09:44,302 --> 00:09:48,062 Speaker 2: have a theory about personality types, which is, no matter 198 00:09:48,142 --> 00:09:51,622 Speaker 2: how scientific or how spiritual, whether or not you like 199 00:09:51,742 --> 00:09:56,982 Speaker 2: them depends on your personality. To so Murphy, for example, 200 00:09:57,502 --> 00:09:59,702 Speaker 2: you reject all of them, am I corrects. 201 00:09:59,742 --> 00:10:02,862 Speaker 4: Reject is a harsh word, but yes, I feel like 202 00:10:02,942 --> 00:10:07,261 Speaker 4: you can lump enneagrams in with the same type of thing, 203 00:10:07,382 --> 00:10:11,862 Speaker 4: like which friends character are you? You quizzes or all 204 00:10:11,942 --> 00:10:15,582 Speaker 4: these horoscopes that you know, whichever rising moon or whatever 205 00:10:15,622 --> 00:10:17,302 Speaker 4: you have yourself in Like, I get it, I know 206 00:10:17,342 --> 00:10:19,022 Speaker 4: why people do it. I understand it. We all want 207 00:10:19,062 --> 00:10:22,862 Speaker 4: to understand ourselves better, and we like giving ourselves little labels. 208 00:10:22,982 --> 00:10:25,942 Speaker 4: We like to tell people what those labels are. And 209 00:10:26,022 --> 00:10:28,182 Speaker 4: I would really like to know when you do these 210 00:10:28,262 --> 00:10:31,742 Speaker 4: quiz whether you are one hundred percent truthful or whether 211 00:10:32,022 --> 00:10:34,542 Speaker 4: you can ever be because you have ideas about who 212 00:10:34,582 --> 00:10:37,462 Speaker 4: you are, but whether you really can actually express them 213 00:10:37,462 --> 00:10:39,502 Speaker 4: the way that others see you as a whole different thing. 214 00:10:40,062 --> 00:10:42,582 Speaker 4: Humans are so weird that we feel like we've got 215 00:10:42,622 --> 00:10:47,142 Speaker 4: to understand every tiny molecule as it's lined up and 216 00:10:47,342 --> 00:10:51,102 Speaker 4: comes out as our personality. It feels like a supplement 217 00:10:51,222 --> 00:10:53,862 Speaker 4: for religion, Like if you feel like you don't have 218 00:10:53,942 --> 00:10:56,062 Speaker 4: a faith, or you don't have something to believe in, 219 00:10:56,142 --> 00:10:57,782 Speaker 4: that these kinds of things can kind. 220 00:10:57,622 --> 00:10:58,942 Speaker 1: Of feel that void a little bit. 221 00:10:59,422 --> 00:11:02,022 Speaker 4: So like I believe in enneagrams as much as I 222 00:11:02,102 --> 00:11:05,502 Speaker 4: believe in Catholicism, which is like zero oh. 223 00:11:05,462 --> 00:11:12,102 Speaker 2: Okay, spoken like a true eight challenger, powerful, decisive, will, full, 224 00:11:12,142 --> 00:11:16,342 Speaker 2: confrontational jesse. That's a throat out about Catholicism right there. 225 00:11:16,342 --> 00:11:18,222 Speaker 2: It's Friday. I don't know if I want to go. 226 00:11:18,582 --> 00:11:21,462 Speaker 4: It's the interrupt but they're like nothing against people who 227 00:11:21,662 --> 00:11:24,862 Speaker 4: believe in Catholicism or want to believe that enneagrams describe 228 00:11:24,862 --> 00:11:28,462 Speaker 4: their friends spirituality, or want to find out which friends 229 00:11:28,502 --> 00:11:30,502 Speaker 4: character they are. Like if that makes you feel good, 230 00:11:30,582 --> 00:11:32,942 Speaker 4: I'm not going to stop you, but I don't subscribe. 231 00:11:33,022 --> 00:11:37,822 Speaker 3: It's interesting your spiritual point because what I found interesting 232 00:11:37,862 --> 00:11:40,662 Speaker 3: that I learned at this course I did, yes, was 233 00:11:40,742 --> 00:11:44,022 Speaker 3: that there's this overlap of people sort of within Christianity, 234 00:11:44,062 --> 00:11:46,662 Speaker 3: like faith based institutions, who are very interested in this. 235 00:11:47,302 --> 00:11:50,222 Speaker 3: I agree with you that humans are desperate for a 236 00:11:50,302 --> 00:11:55,222 Speaker 3: coherent narrative and that is what religion and faith gave 237 00:11:55,382 --> 00:11:57,662 Speaker 3: us a few generations ago. And obviously we know that 238 00:11:57,742 --> 00:12:00,502 Speaker 3: religious adherence is going down, So there is this kind 239 00:12:00,502 --> 00:12:04,062 Speaker 3: of gap that people are trying to fill. On the 240 00:12:04,062 --> 00:12:06,862 Speaker 3: one hand, I go, is it doing any harm If 241 00:12:06,902 --> 00:12:10,262 Speaker 3: people find that this helps them, if it help understand 242 00:12:10,302 --> 00:12:13,261 Speaker 3: themselves and their own motivations, and maybe that's a good thing. 243 00:12:13,782 --> 00:12:16,542 Speaker 3: But on the other hand, do we end up using 244 00:12:16,582 --> 00:12:21,342 Speaker 3: personality tests as an excuse? So if Holly finds that 245 00:12:21,342 --> 00:12:25,222 Speaker 3: she's the peacemaker, next time you come into contact with conflict, 246 00:12:25,222 --> 00:12:27,302 Speaker 3: do you go, well, I'm not good at conflict? Like 247 00:12:27,382 --> 00:12:31,542 Speaker 3: is there something that stunts our growth mindset or our 248 00:12:31,622 --> 00:12:36,182 Speaker 3: understanding is people that are ever changing rather than set 249 00:12:36,382 --> 00:12:36,942 Speaker 3: in stone. 250 00:12:37,062 --> 00:12:39,382 Speaker 4: But also then do you ignore parts of yourself for 251 00:12:39,422 --> 00:12:41,982 Speaker 4: the sake of being that number three that you want 252 00:12:42,062 --> 00:12:45,062 Speaker 4: to be? So if you want to be a peacemaker 253 00:12:45,102 --> 00:12:47,302 Speaker 4: and you want to work at that, and that is 254 00:12:47,342 --> 00:12:51,262 Speaker 4: actually naturally part of your personality, but you kind of 255 00:12:51,262 --> 00:12:52,462 Speaker 4: suppress it because you're like, well that. 256 00:12:52,422 --> 00:12:53,422 Speaker 1: Doesn't fit the narrative. 257 00:12:53,622 --> 00:12:55,902 Speaker 4: Yeah, Like you know, it's like do you want to 258 00:12:55,942 --> 00:12:57,942 Speaker 4: subscribe to all of this and make it your identity? 259 00:12:58,022 --> 00:13:00,302 Speaker 4: So like I don't walk around saying, oh, guys, my 260 00:13:00,422 --> 00:13:02,622 Speaker 4: name's Claire and I'm such a Scorpio eight like, it 261 00:13:02,702 --> 00:13:05,302 Speaker 4: just doesn't a lot of people who I am right. 262 00:13:05,382 --> 00:13:08,102 Speaker 2: This is interesting because a lot of people do. I 263 00:13:08,142 --> 00:13:11,582 Speaker 2: think your point, Jesse, by how useful it is. Obviously 264 00:13:11,582 --> 00:13:13,982 Speaker 2: there are experts in this field who could go deep 265 00:13:14,022 --> 00:13:16,622 Speaker 2: about how useful it is. But over my course of 266 00:13:16,622 --> 00:13:18,742 Speaker 2: my career, I've been sent to quite a few management 267 00:13:18,782 --> 00:13:21,422 Speaker 2: courses and things like that by various employers, and they 268 00:13:21,542 --> 00:13:24,342 Speaker 2: love a personality test, right, those kind of things. And 269 00:13:24,382 --> 00:13:26,462 Speaker 2: one of the points of that is you're supposed to 270 00:13:26,502 --> 00:13:29,022 Speaker 2: find out who you are, but then you're also supposed 271 00:13:29,062 --> 00:13:31,902 Speaker 2: to be able to identify who your team is and 272 00:13:31,982 --> 00:13:36,021 Speaker 2: work out how better to manage them or manipulate them. Basically, 273 00:13:36,142 --> 00:13:39,342 Speaker 2: that's a negative word for get the best out of them, right, 274 00:13:39,902 --> 00:13:42,302 Speaker 2: And so that's what it's used for, and it can 275 00:13:42,382 --> 00:13:44,942 Speaker 2: be very useful. When I was younger, like you, Claire, 276 00:13:45,142 --> 00:13:47,982 Speaker 2: I think I have eight rising in that, I was like, 277 00:13:48,062 --> 00:13:50,302 Speaker 2: don't put me in a box, man, like you can't 278 00:13:50,302 --> 00:13:54,862 Speaker 2: describe all my complexities by this simple number. I won't 279 00:13:54,902 --> 00:13:58,302 Speaker 2: have it. But it was very useful for me to learn, 280 00:13:58,702 --> 00:14:02,742 Speaker 2: as like a young person that everybody's motivations are different 281 00:14:02,822 --> 00:14:05,142 Speaker 2: and when you understand what matters to different people in 282 00:14:05,182 --> 00:14:08,302 Speaker 2: different ways. You can make work, for example, more satisfying 283 00:14:08,302 --> 00:14:12,582 Speaker 2: for them. That's a truth that is interesting. But I 284 00:14:12,742 --> 00:14:15,582 Speaker 2: do think that people do use it as a personal brand. 285 00:14:15,622 --> 00:14:18,182 Speaker 2: Like if everybody in Hollywood is loving doing the enneagrams 286 00:14:18,222 --> 00:14:21,142 Speaker 2: and ambitious successful people tend to be threes, then three 287 00:14:21,222 --> 00:14:22,822 Speaker 2: is the most high status, you know what I mean, 288 00:14:22,822 --> 00:14:25,782 Speaker 2: So everybody wants to be that, so it kind of 289 00:14:26,542 --> 00:14:27,582 Speaker 2: shifts the testing. 290 00:14:27,822 --> 00:14:31,502 Speaker 3: I saw a term that I thought was really an 291 00:14:31,542 --> 00:14:34,422 Speaker 3: interesting way of putting it, which is, we are experiencing 292 00:14:34,462 --> 00:14:38,862 Speaker 3: the rise of curated selfhood like and the interrogation of 293 00:14:38,902 --> 00:14:41,862 Speaker 3: selfhood in a new way, which I understand that people 294 00:14:41,942 --> 00:14:44,582 Speaker 3: might turn their nose up to. And there is a 295 00:14:44,662 --> 00:14:48,702 Speaker 3: study phenomenon called the Barnum effect, which is if you 296 00:14:48,822 --> 00:14:52,742 Speaker 3: make anything broad or flattering enough, then people will see 297 00:14:52,782 --> 00:14:55,822 Speaker 3: themselves in it. So, Holly, I guarantee that if we swapped, 298 00:14:56,222 --> 00:14:57,902 Speaker 3: then I could probably see a lot of parts in 299 00:14:57,942 --> 00:15:01,142 Speaker 3: myself in your aneagram, and you the same to me. 300 00:15:01,902 --> 00:15:04,582 Speaker 3: But I also don't want to undermine people who have 301 00:15:04,702 --> 00:15:08,702 Speaker 3: found this really useful and have done legitimate research in 302 00:15:09,302 --> 00:15:14,742 Speaker 3: this space. And ultimately it's about understanding how fundamentally different 303 00:15:14,782 --> 00:15:17,542 Speaker 3: a lot of us are. We are motivated by entirely 304 00:15:17,702 --> 00:15:22,822 Speaker 3: different things, often want different things, We have different values, 305 00:15:23,462 --> 00:15:27,022 Speaker 3: and to try and understand that often makes us a 306 00:15:27,062 --> 00:15:28,862 Speaker 3: better partner, or a better friend. 307 00:15:28,662 --> 00:15:30,662 Speaker 2: Or a better the way we can walk around thinking, well, 308 00:15:30,662 --> 00:15:33,822 Speaker 2: everybody's like me, they ought to be exactly Yeah, I 309 00:15:33,822 --> 00:15:34,462 Speaker 2: think what I think. 310 00:15:34,542 --> 00:15:36,502 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I guess I'm going to be hypocritical here 311 00:15:36,502 --> 00:15:38,022 Speaker 4: because if you look at the kind of person that 312 00:15:38,062 --> 00:15:40,582 Speaker 4: I am, I'm very much an in the moment person. 313 00:15:40,742 --> 00:15:42,142 Speaker 1: I'm not a future planner. 314 00:15:42,182 --> 00:15:44,382 Speaker 4: I'm not someone who sets down with their manager every 315 00:15:44,462 --> 00:15:46,942 Speaker 4: year and says, here's my five year success plan. 316 00:15:47,062 --> 00:15:49,422 Speaker 1: Like, I'm just not that person. So for me to 317 00:15:49,542 --> 00:15:49,942 Speaker 1: try and. 318 00:15:50,462 --> 00:15:55,302 Speaker 4: Think of these things as ways to better understand myself 319 00:15:55,782 --> 00:15:59,542 Speaker 4: in a bigger picture, I'm not seeking enlightenment. My motivation 320 00:15:59,742 --> 00:16:03,022 Speaker 4: is to be as happy and as successful as I 321 00:16:03,062 --> 00:16:05,662 Speaker 4: can be in this moment today, talking to you too, 322 00:16:06,102 --> 00:16:08,582 Speaker 4: recording this episode ab out loud, like that is how 323 00:16:08,662 --> 00:16:12,182 Speaker 4: my mind works. So I guess for me, these things 324 00:16:12,222 --> 00:16:15,342 Speaker 4: feel like fantasy because it's like I'm not striving to 325 00:16:15,422 --> 00:16:19,262 Speaker 4: achieve a better me.

We talked for a 366 00:18:08,381 --> 00:18:10,221 Speaker 2: while about how they've been having a moment, and I've 367 00:18:10,222 --> 00:18:12,382 Speaker 2: still got that app on my phone that oh yeah 368 00:18:12,381 --> 00:18:15,421 Speaker 2: every day. Today. It told me that today was a 369 00:18:15,422 --> 00:18:18,101 Speaker 2: good day to accept that I have responsibilities, which seems 370 00:18:18,182 --> 00:18:21,782 Speaker 2: quite rude. And then it told me I should be 371 00:18:21,861 --> 00:18:25,341 Speaker 2: aspiring to inbox zero, which is nonsense, and to declutter 372 00:18:25,381 --> 00:18:27,582 Speaker 2: my desk, and I'm sensing a theme here, and I 373 00:18:27,661 --> 00:18:30,621 Speaker 2: think that it's a points.

Right like? And I think that's 378 00:18:46,782 --> 00:18:52,101 Speaker 3: actually a deeply existential, deeply spiritual question that I am 379 00:18:52,222 --> 00:18:56,101 Speaker 3: lacking the framework to answer. And something about these tests 380 00:18:56,262 --> 00:18:57,942 Speaker 3: is like scratches the surface. 381 00:18:57,621 --> 00:18:58,102 Speaker 1: A little bit. 382 00:18:58,502 --> 00:19:00,702 Speaker 4: See, I'm of the opinion like who is in there 383 00:19:00,742 --> 00:19:03,941 Speaker 4: is none of my business.

I've canceled on my best friend a 393 00:19:33,782 --> 00:19:36,982 Speaker 2: few times recently, but last Friday was the worst timing ever. 394 00:19:37,302 --> 00:19:39,141 Speaker 2: I texted her an hour before our dinner to say 395 00:19:39,141 --> 00:19:41,181 Speaker 2: I couldn't make it because I was exhausted after a 396 00:19:41,222 --> 00:19:44,302 Speaker 2: hectic work week. What I didn't know was that she'd 397 00:19:44,302 --> 00:19:46,622 Speaker 2: planned to tell me some really difficult news that night. 398 00:19:46,661 --> 00:19:49,502 Speaker 2: She'd just been made redundant at work and was completely 399 00:19:49,542 --> 00:19:52,461 Speaker 2: devastated about it. Instead of having someone to talk to, 400 00:19:52,621 --> 00:19:55,421 Speaker 2: she ended up alone in a restaurant before heading home. 401 00:19:56,101 --> 00:19:58,261 Speaker 2: I only found out the next day when she posted 402 00:19:58,302 --> 00:20:01,421 Speaker 2: a vague when it rains its pause comment on social media. 403 00:20:02,061 --> 00:20:04,741 Speaker 2: When I messaged her, she told me everything and mentioned 404 00:20:04,782 --> 00:20:07,141 Speaker 2: she'd specifically wanted our catch up to talk about it 405 00:20:07,141 --> 00:20:10,262 Speaker 2: because she needed support. Now her replies my messages is 406 00:20:10,341 --> 00:20:13,022 Speaker 2: short and I can tell she's hurt. I feel terrible. 407 00:20:13,262 --> 00:20:16,222 Speaker 2: I've been that friend who keeps saying let's reschedule without 408 00:20:16,262 --> 00:20:19,181 Speaker 2: realizing the impact. I want to make it right, but 409 00:20:19,222 --> 00:20:22,502 Speaker 2: I worry I've damaged our friendship. The question is what 410 00:20:22,821 --> 00:20:24,261 Speaker 2: do you do next? 411 00:20:24,581 --> 00:20:27,262 Speaker 3: A grand gesture? It's time for a grand gesture.

So 496 00:24:39,422 --> 00:24:43,022 Speaker 2: Keiky is played by Julianne Moore, who is an amazing actress, 497 00:24:43,381 --> 00:24:47,502 Speaker 2: the sisters, and Megan Fahi from White and Millie Olcock, 498 00:24:47,502 --> 00:24:49,981 Speaker 2: who is the Australian actress who is in Upright with 499 00:24:50,022 --> 00:24:52,502 Speaker 2: Tim Minchin and who's now massive in Hollywood because she's 500 00:24:52,581 --> 00:24:55,501 Speaker 2: so oh she is the most watchable person. 501 00:24:55,742 --> 00:24:58,581 Speaker 1: And so she was in Games How's the Dragon? 502 00:24:58,742 --> 00:25:01,661 Speaker 2: Yeah, she's a House of Dragons person, and now she 503 00:25:01,861 --> 00:25:03,821 Speaker 2: is in this and she plays the sort of the 504 00:25:03,861 --> 00:25:07,661 Speaker 2: wayward younger sister. If you like. It's really interesting because 505 00:25:07,742 --> 00:25:10,222 Speaker 2: on the surface of it, it seems like a romp, 506 00:25:10,422 --> 00:25:15,101 Speaker 2: like it's very stylistically gorgeous to look at, but actually 507 00:25:15,182 --> 00:25:17,502 Speaker 2: the subject matter is quite heavy, like it deals with 508 00:25:17,742 --> 00:25:22,821 Speaker 2: class stuff and childhood trauma stuff and addiction. But it's 509 00:25:22,982 --> 00:25:25,341 Speaker 2: just so good. And Kevin Bacon did I mention. 510 00:25:25,462 --> 00:25:27,782 Speaker 3: I'm okay, you've convinced me that sounds really good. 511 00:25:27,861 --> 00:25:30,341 Speaker 2: It's really good. It's kind of like a cap center bread. Oh. 512 00:25:30,381 --> 00:25:32,741 Speaker 2: The tone's a bit weird because it does go between 513 00:25:32,782 --> 00:25:36,302 Speaker 2: this really heavy stuff to this kind of slightly ridiculous stuff. 514 00:25:36,542 --> 00:25:39,701 Speaker 2: But the ending, the twist is good. It's satisfying. I 515 00:25:39,782 --> 00:25:43,302 Speaker 2: thoroughly enjoyed it. I would happily waste several hours of 516 00:25:43,302 --> 00:25:44,262 Speaker 2: my life watching it again. 517 00:25:44,381 --> 00:25:46,622 Speaker 4: It also brings a bit of a paranormal vibe to it, too, 518 00:25:46,621 --> 00:25:49,701 Speaker 4: which you never fully quite know whether it is or 519 00:25:49,742 --> 00:25:50,262 Speaker 4: it isn't. 520 00:25:50,782 --> 00:25:51,261 Speaker 1: It's so good. 521 00:25:51,381 --> 00:25:53,022 Speaker 4: What I like the best about this is you think 522 00:25:53,702 --> 00:25:55,861 Speaker 4: you know a character and you start to get to 523 00:25:55,901 --> 00:25:58,061 Speaker 4: like them, and then you don't like them anymore, and 524 00:25:58,101 --> 00:25:59,661 Speaker 4: then you get to like them, and then you don't 525 00:25:59,742 --> 00:26:00,022 Speaker 4: like them. 526 00:26:00,022 --> 00:26:02,502 Speaker 1: It is like literally clear on and off the whole time. 527 00:26:02,581 --> 00:26:03,142 Speaker 1: It's so good. 528 00:26:03,141 --> 00:26:06,581 Speaker 2: It's really well written.

And then 751 00:36:42,942 --> 00:36:45,102 Speaker 2: I realized how sad it was to have a little 752 00:36:45,102 --> 00:36:49,142 Speaker 2: baby in a tasteful what might we call that paste? 753 00:36:49,422 --> 00:36:53,542 Speaker 2: We might call that color paste, and overall we might 754 00:36:53,582 --> 00:36:56,661 Speaker 2: call that one porridge.

My worst I talked about a 831 00:40:25,741 --> 00:40:28,142 Speaker 3: lot this week, but definitely project ending that was the 832 00:40:28,221 --> 00:40:30,142 Speaker 3: end of an era and I'm just sad I wouldn't 833 00:40:30,142 --> 00:40:32,822 Speaker 3: get to see my friends as much anymore. My best 834 00:40:33,142 --> 00:40:37,341 Speaker 3: though was I had a voucher from my mum for 835 00:40:37,462 --> 00:40:40,142 Speaker 3: Christmas that we hadn't spent yet, and we booked an 836 00:40:40,142 --> 00:40:42,301 Speaker 3: advance to this restaurant which is at the Opera House 837 00:40:42,342 --> 00:40:47,422 Speaker 3: called Midden and my Dd So it is Australian indigenous 838 00:40:47,542 --> 00:40:51,421 Speaker 3: ingredients and it is literally at the Opera House. It 839 00:40:51,502 --> 00:40:54,261 Speaker 3: was Lucra and I Claren Rory, which I think since 840 00:40:54,302 --> 00:40:56,142 Speaker 3: the girls were born. The four of us without the 841 00:40:56,181 --> 00:40:59,702 Speaker 3: girls have spent like, you know, that's maybe our second dinner. 842 00:40:59,741 --> 00:41:02,301 Speaker 3: So it's so special when the four of us can 843 00:41:03,102 --> 00:41:07,221 Speaker 3: spend time us really interesting tastes. So there was an 844 00:41:07,261 --> 00:41:12,022 Speaker 3: amazing egg plant. We kangaroo. There was emu. 845 00:41:12,502 --> 00:41:14,542 Speaker 1: Are you an adventurous eater in general? 846 00:41:15,142 --> 00:41:15,942 Speaker 2: I'm not. I'm not. 847 00:41:16,181 --> 00:41:18,102 Speaker 3: And so the fact that I loved it. Look, there 848 00:41:18,102 --> 00:41:20,701 Speaker 3: were some great roast potatoes. It's a great helmus. They 849 00:41:20,902 --> 00:41:25,022 Speaker 3: are beat they exactly beige. And the dam part the bread. 850 00:41:25,622 --> 00:41:28,462 Speaker 3: Because when we did a bunch of Northern Territory tourism 851 00:41:28,542 --> 00:41:32,021 Speaker 3: stuff a few years ago, we had this tour guide 852 00:41:32,022 --> 00:41:34,982 Speaker 3: who showed us about the berries and all the different tastes. 853 00:41:35,022 --> 00:41:37,821 Speaker 3: And there are jokes sometimes about how Australia doesn't have 854 00:41:37,822 --> 00:41:41,462 Speaker 3: a cuisine. Yeah, we've got the longest you know, running 855 00:41:41,582 --> 00:41:45,382 Speaker 3: population ever in Australia, forty thousand years. And the food 856 00:41:45,502 --> 00:41:49,462 Speaker 3: is so interesting and so nutritious and so yummy. And 857 00:41:49,542 --> 00:41:52,341 Speaker 3: to actually sit there and eat it and celebrate all 858 00:41:52,342 --> 00:41:53,422 Speaker 3: of those flavors. 859 00:41:53,181 --> 00:41:57,902 Speaker 4: Was so much and so sustainable and yes, seasonal and brilliant. 860 00:41:58,062 --> 00:41:59,862 Speaker 2: I love that exactly fun of kangaroo. 861 00:41:59,982 --> 00:42:01,942 Speaker 3: This was just a little bit too fu for me. 862 00:42:02,022 --> 00:42:04,022 Speaker 3: But Claara and Luca had some crocodile. 863 00:42:04,342 --> 00:42:06,861 Speaker 1: I love crocodile. You can get it a pizza at 864 00:42:06,902 --> 00:42:07,902 Speaker 1: the Australian the Pub. 865 00:42:07,982 --> 00:42:12,542 Speaker 3: It's delicious, really Okay, Claire, what was your worst? 866 00:42:12,741 --> 00:42:13,102 Speaker 1: Okay? 867 00:42:13,142 --> 00:42:14,942 Speaker 4: I need you all to steal yourselves for a minute, 868 00:42:14,942 --> 00:42:18,181 Speaker 4: because I'm about to play you something and it is 869 00:42:18,302 --> 00:42:18,781 Speaker 4: not good. 870 00:42:19,422 --> 00:42:19,822 Speaker 3: Okay. 871 00:42:20,622 --> 00:42:23,901 Speaker 4: So I now work on another podcast called Well, where 872 00:42:23,942 --> 00:42:27,181 Speaker 4: we are busting some myths about women's health. Now, unfortunately, 873 00:42:27,261 --> 00:42:28,821 Speaker 4: part of that means I need to find out what 874 00:42:28,862 --> 00:42:32,902 Speaker 4: the misinformation is that women are being fed about their bodies. Yes, 875 00:42:32,982 --> 00:42:37,062 Speaker 4: and what that has done has tragically interrupted my social 876 00:42:37,102 --> 00:42:41,302 Speaker 4: media algorithm.

Okay, if you are easily grossed out, 884 00:43:06,462 --> 00:43:09,302 Speaker 4: please just I don't know, look away for a second. 885 00:43:09,982 --> 00:43:13,821 Speaker 4: This won't take long.
